LAL’s public event at the Kinokuniya bookstore in Dubai was a great success, with a sizeable crowd in attendance and an engaging Q&A session afterwards. A number of attendees bought copies of our books after the event, as well. As it turns out, Arabic Literature (in English) sent reporter Mohga Hassib to cover the event—in case you missed it, her breakdown can be found on the site here, which also includes links to all interviews with our editor-translators in the last two years.

A hearty thanks to everyone who attended and, of course, to our graceful hosts at Kinokuniya!
